Cross posting from a Tamil forum for your benefit
Is there Hindi imposition.
1. All Indian gov employees must pass Hindi exam.
2. all indian gov employees must write certain % of letters in Hindi (even within TN 50%)
3. Indian "national" TV has may be 50 times more Hindi movies than all other languages combined.
4. Indian regional channel in Chennai shows more Hindi movies than Tamil movies (TRUE)
5. Cheenai regional chanel shows Hindi news at early night time but Tamil news after most people go to sleep.
6. Indian gov employees in TN who do not pass Hindi exams do not get their annual pay raise.
7. Hindi announcement in air flight!
8. Hindi announcements in more and more TN rail stations
9. Drug labels in Hindi
10. Embassies are told to promote Hindi film

1) I do not know it is true or not - so no comments.
2) What is wrong if they asked to learn one more language.... I am a mallu and i speak 5 languages including tamil)
3) Indian national TV has channels for every language - even Tamil channel all the programmes are in tamil (barring english programmes)
4) I dono who told you this..... Regional channels donot show any hindi movies. May 1 or 2 here and there.....
5) Cheenai channel.... Never heard of this channel in my network i get about 20 tamil channels i never seen any Hindi programme on thos channels.
6) I have no idea about this - So No comments.
7) SOP across the world.... nothing special.... They follow the same in every air port...
8) Yes hindi announcement but prior to that there is a tamil announcement too.... Again its SOP of indian railways to use 3 languages (for non hindi states)
9) Lived in Tamil nadu and travel very often, never seen a drug with hindi or tamil label... Its English
10) Embassies are for the country - not for tamil nadu... But i got no idea how an embassy can promote movies ...
@Sashan can add to this....
